If this is your first time joining The Crafting Corner and/or Texas Yellow Roses, welcome!
I joined Stampin' Up! in 2007 and started as a hobby demo. I already spent enough money each month at the local scrapbook store, so when they closed, it was a no-brainer to join Stampin' Up!! I started slowly adding an event/class/craft time slowly. It has blossomed into the best part of my life outside of God & my family!
I put together this newsletter so those of you not on FB or want a more tangible place for all the fun stuff going on, here it is in Cliff Notes! Read along to see all the fun and important things coming our way!
Oh, don't forget to order items before Sale-a-Bration ends! You still get FREE items and host rewards with any "demo" order of $150 or more!

NEW Online Exclusives!
Stampin' Up! is always staying one step ahead of the game by keeping tabs on shopping trends. I know it's frustrating when they change up the catalog schedule, but I now see why they did! Check out the new timeline for product releases! This keeps your friends & customers (and us) excited about new products and getting our grubby hands on them (with our discount!)
"We have carefully considered ways to help you in your business and gathered feedback from you about our product releases. Now, we are thrilled to announce that starting January 2023, we will consistently release new products every other month. Three of the releases will continue to be through catalogs—one annual and two mini catalogs—and the three additional releases will happen exclusively in the online store (not connected to a catalog). The products released this way will be called Online Exclusives.
As part of this more frequent launch approach, we are also adjusting the sales period of our mini catalogs from six months to four months. The mini catalog that formally ended in June will now end in April. The mini catalog that began in July will now begin in September. We will also have only one Sale-A-Bration, which will be available at the beginning of the year. The annual catalog will not change"
Why these changes?
Implementing these changes accomplishes many of our goals, which revolve around making a positive difference in people’s lives and helping you succeed! Some of the benefits to this approach include the following:
- Gives you more opportunities to reach out to your customers about exciting new products.
- Allows you to plan classes, events, social media efforts, and samples with more consistency as products will now be released on a more consistent schedule.
- Enables you and your team to thoughtfully plan out how you can interact and connect with customers and our creative community.
- Combines something familiar with something new—three traditional catalog releases with three new online product releases.
- Allows you and the company to better utilize digital resources and platforms in an ever-changing world.
- Helps us respond more quickly to relevant trends, your needs, and the needs of your customers.
- Provides more flexibility in how products are released as we face ongoing global supply chain challenges and rising costs.

March 31st is the last day to submit orders to meet the minimum. Stampin' Up! is one of the few companies that give you a one month grace period. I will be sending out reminders via text next month to those that are not quite there yet.
If there are financial issues or life changes that are affecting your orders-I strongly encourage you to reach out to Stampin' Up! The will work with you and give you suggestions. They can re-instate you on May 9th. This is after the month of May financials close and their computers are up to date.
Log on with your Demo ID & password, then scroll down to your lower right of the page. You will see Quick Stats. See image below to check how much you need to meet this quarter. Reach out if you have any questions!
Demo perks to be look for:
1. The Last Chance list is still going on for the Occasions Mini! Once the items are gone, they are gone! Some items may be discounted too. Hand out some catalogs with the retired list attached! You may meet your minimum with help from other craft addicts! AND you get your discount on top of the sale prices!
2. We can enjoy today through the end of February!! Online Exclusives Pre-Order AND EARN FREE items from the Sale a Bration catalog! Yippie!!!
Please let me know of your plans of staying active-I love the fun aspect of our team. But, I do rely on this as supplemental income. I would love to reach Gold Elite! I am super close!
Thank you all for being such an amazing group of creative gals!
